    Hey everyone, I'm Josh and I'm hoping to turn my 1987 Honda Civic hatchback into an EV.

    Does anybody have a recommendation for a kit traction drive system, or better yet a complete transplant from a junkyard, that would be a good fit to drop into my Honda Fit? I have a 2013 5-speed (manual) that I bought brand new; it's never had a big scratch, a drop of oil or a single real...

    I've done some research, but getting information in Japan when you want to do something different is far tougher than one when has never lived here would believe. I'd like a father-son project on a Honda Gyro Canopy: They are 50cc, so I'd need a motor of comparable size, but preferably...

    I'm looking to basically use my civic as an electric golf cart/tractor on the farm. Obviosly doesn't need to go fast, but something with some torque would be ideal. Any ideas for what kind of motor I should use for this?

    Greetings, EVers. I was just wondering--would a Siemens AC motor "care" which way it spun in an EV? I have a Honda, and the transmission spins backwards in comparison with the transmissions of every other car manufacturer. I don't want to get bogged down in a hassle with rebuilding AC motors and...

    Ok, so I have this 1979 Cb 650. Its all in good shape, only had 17,000 original miles on it. After taking the engine apart it was so clean I wish I had beat up more, but alas, my gas guzzling says are over, especially for this old 4 cylinder. It was heavy! So I have a lot of space in the frame...
